‘Transient immediate orthostatic hypotension’ is preferable to ‘initial’ orthostatic hypotension

A drop of systemic blood pressure (BP) occurring shortly after individuals move from supine or seated position to upright posture with subsequent prompt spontaneous resolution is a common physiological occurrence in humans. If the induced hypotension is severe, lightheadedness or postural instability leading to falls and injury may occur. By consensus, a transient systolic BP drop >40 mmHg within

Collective bargaining and minimum wage regime in Sweden

The 2022 EU Directive on Adequate Minimum Wages aims to ensure adequate minimum wages and strengthen collective bargaining in order to reduce in-work poverty and wage inequality. The national transposition and implementation of the Minimum Wage Directive will be heavily shaped by the existing collective bargaining and minimum wage regimes in the 27 EU Member States. To monitor and understand the p

The platformisation of modern family life : young children’s television practices

The article contributes to the research of platformisation of everyday life and children’s television use by exploring how 0-3-year-olds’ television viewing on screen media is embedded in daily social practices of families in Sweden. The article examines the research questions: 1) What social practices are organised around young children’s television viewing on screen media? 2) How can these telev

Teaching the Russian War Against Ukraine : Ukraine as a Microcosm of the Paradigm Shift from International Relations to Planetary Politics

The impact of the Russian war against Ukraine should have far-reaching repercussions on the teaching of International Relations (IR) and European Union (EU) studies. In this article, it is argued that Ukrainian resistance to the invasion must be part of an important shift in thinking about IR and the EU within holistic planetary politics. First, the terminologies and technologies of teaching IR an

Water management of proton exchange membrane fuel cells : two-phase flow simulation in gas diffusion layers and channels

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells are a promising green energy conversion technology for clean and sustainable power generation. However, effective water management remains a critical challenge. Water produced by electrochemical reactions can accumulate within porous electrodes and flow channels, leading to flooding that impedes the reverse transport of reactant gases to the reaction zone, there

Gifts as Media in the Construction of Princes : A Case Study of Duke Johan of Östergötland

This article examines the media construction of Duke Johan of Östergötland (1589–1618), a Swedish prince, through the lens of his recorded gift giving practices. It posits that gifts should be conceptualized as media, shaping the construction of Duke Johan as a ruler and virtuous prince, both in the early seventeenth century and for posterity. By analyzing the remediation of Duke Johan’s gift givi

Kinship and opportunity: Swedish chain migration to the United States, 1880–1920

Between 1850 and 1930, millions of Europeans emigrated to the United States, attracted by opportunities for a better life. We study the role of migrant networks in fostering emigration, using individual-level Swedish full-count census data for men and women, linked to emigration records. Our findings show that having previously migrating siblings was an important determinant of emigration, particu

Mesenteric Venous Thrombosis

Acute mesenteric venous thrombosis accounts for up to 20% of all patients with acute mesenteric ischemia in high-income countries and is a very difficult disease to diagnose on clinical grounds. However, owing to the increased availability and evolution of computed tomography in high-income countries, early diagnosis prior to the development of peritonitis is often possible. First-line therapy is

Three-dimensional aortic arch geometry and blood flow in neonates after surgical repair for aortic coarctation

Background: Recurrent coarctation of the aorta (re-CoA) is a well-known although not fully understood complication after surgical repair, typically occurring in 10%–20% of cases within months after discharge. Objectives: To (1) characterize geometry of the aortic arch and blood flow from pre-discharge magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neonates after CoA repair; and (2) compare these measures bet

Pink Hair as a Cyberfeminist Symbol : Online Gender-Based Violence and the “PinkUp” Movement in China

This paper investigates online gender-based violence (OGBV) in China using the perspectives of queer feminism and cyberfeminism. As a case study, it examines the cyberviolence against the “Pink Hair Girl” on Xiaohongshu (a popular Chinese social media platform) and the subsequent resistance by women. The study focuses on the following questions: How does the symbolic use of pink hair represent que

The effect of introducing waste heat from electrolyzers to a power plant in-between two district heating condensers

The work studied the concept of introducing electrolyzer waste heat in between the district heating condensers to study the effects. This was done through IPSEpro where a model of a small-scale Swedish CHP-station was built. Two different cases were analyzed, where one CHP-station was analyzed as an existing (i.e., a fixed geometry) station and the other as a future potential station with external

Assessing the elevational synchronization in vegetation phenology across Northern Hemisphere mountain ecosystems under global warming

In recent decades, changes in vegetation phenology have exhibited a tight coupling with global warming. Mountain ecosystems are particularly susceptible to climate change, with high elevations warming faster than lower areas. The inconsistent rate of temperature change across elevations may lead to synchronization of phenological patterns, reducing the differences in phenology timing between high

Unbiased Drug Target Prediction Reveals Sensitivity to Ferroptosis Inducers, HDAC and RTK Inhibitors in Melanoma Subtypes

Background: The utilization of PD1 and CTLA4 inhibitors has revolutionized the treatment of malignant melanoma (MM). However, resistance to targeted and immune-checkpoint-based therapies still poses a significant problem. Objective: Here, we mine large-scale MM proteogenomic data to identify druggable targets and forecast treatment efficacy and resistance. Methods: Leveraging protein profiles from

Voltage Regulation in Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell Systems Using Gaussian Process Model Predictive Control

This study presents a novel approach using Gaussian process model predictive control (MPC) to stabilize the output voltage of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) by regulating hydrogen and airflow rates. Two Gaussian process models capture PEFC dynamics, accounting for constraints like hydrogen pressure and input change rates to reduce predictive control errors. The performance of the physical

Spatial Downscaling of Gridded Soil Moisture Products Using Optical and Thermal Satellite Data: Effect of Using Different Vegetation Indices

Satellite remote sensing offers global-scale soil moisture (SM) estimation to assess water and energy cycles. However, the coarse resolution of SM products from microwave remote sensing is unsuitable for fine-scale analysis. This study explored spatial downscaling methods to refine the 0.25° ESA CCI SM product to a 1-km resolution, utilizing optical and thermal remote sensing data, including the n
